Chapter 372 Tell the truth
Although Qin Shu was very kind to Wen Yanya and spoke softly, Wen Yanya still felt that Qin Shu seemed to be a little depressed.
Maybe after she left, Qin Qixuan and the others would be punished by Qin Shu.
Wen Yanya hesitated. These people from the Qin family originally went to Jinnan Palace at night because they wanted to visit her who was under house arrest in Jinnan Palace. They didn't expect that they would be discovered by Qin Shu in the end and suffer physical pain.
As for why Qin Qixuan didn't tell the truth...
Wen Yanya guessed that he didn't want Qin Shu to think too much, and didn't want to ruin Wen Yanya's reputation.
However...
Wen Yanya couldn't keep this a secret for her whole life, and Zhao Zemo didn't do anything to her at all, so Wen Yanya had a clear conscience. She felt that Qin Shu was not the kind of person who would hold a grudge against her because of this incident.
This incident was caused by her, so she couldn't let others be punished in her place.
Wen Yanya pursed her lips and knelt directly in front of Qin Shu.
Qin Shu didn't expect Wen Yanya to kneel down suddenly. She was startled by her and hurriedly wanted to help her up, but she didn't expect Wen Yanya to be very firm.
"This matter is not Qixuan's fault. Auntie, if you want to punish someone, punish Yaer."
Wen Yanya's expression was a little gloomy. Under Qin Qixuan's worried eyes, she still told the whole story.
Wen Yanya's heart was like being bound by cold iron chains, heavy and powerless. She knelt in front of Qin Shu, her bright eyes were now filled with tears, but her tone was unusually firm, as if she was narrating a fact that could not be changed.
"After I entered the capital, I lived in an inn. It was originally just a place to stay. I wrote a letter and told Brother Qixuan where I was."
"But I didn't expect that something happened in the palace. I received a reply from Brother Qixuan, but when I took my bag and wanted to enter the Qin Mansion, I found that the Imperial Guards had surrounded the Qin Mansion tightly. I couldn't get in, so I had to go back to the previous inn and live again."
But...
Wen Yanya took a deep breath, and Qin Qixuan couldn't bear it.
"Xiaoya, don't say it if you don't want to."
Wen Yanya smiled and looked at him, indicating that she was fine.
"When I went out to investigate the situation, I met Zhao Zemo. I don't know why, but he saw me at first sight and wanted me to be with him. I disagreed, so he took me to his house by force. Although Zhao Zemo didn't do anything to me, I was still imprisoned in the house and was very scared."
"Fortunately, Brother Qixuan went to Jinnan Palace tonight to rescue me, otherwise, I would still be exhausted in Jinnan Palace until now, and I might be pulled up early in the morning, dressed up, introduced to everyone by Zhao Zemo, and then my reputation would be completely ruined..."
Wen Yanya burst into tears, and everyone who heard it was silent.
Especially Qin Shu, she didn't expect that Wen Yanya had experienced so many things and suffered so much during this period!
She sighed, thinking that Wen Yanya was really too pitiful, suffering for nothing.
After Qin Shu heard it, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes. She sighed softly, helped Wen Yanya up, and her voice was soft and firm.
"Xiaoya, you don't have to do this. This is not your fault. Besides, how can we, the people of the Qin family, bow our heads to others so easily?"
Wen Yanya raised her head and looked at Qin Shu with tears in her eyes, and a warm current surged in her heart. She knew that although Qin Shu was a little strict sometimes, she was a very kind and gentle person in her heart.
"Aunt, I..." Wen Yanya wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Qin Shu.
"Okay, I know what you want to say. Since Qixuan went out in the middle of the night because of you, I won't punish him."
Qin Shu saw through what Wen Yanya was thinking at a glance.
Qin Qixuan has grown up, and he has already started to discuss getting married. Since he chose to go to Jinnan Palace to save Wen Yanya, and Wen Yanya is his fiancée, Qin Shu will not interfere with his choice.
As a man, if Qin Qixuan does not save Wen Yanya, Qin Shu will feel that her son is not a person worthy of entrusting her life to.
Seeing that Wen Yanya was still a little worried, Qin Shu helplessly assured her repeatedly.
"Okay, Xiaoya, what you have to do now is to have a good rest. Tomorrow I will let you see a lively Qin Qixuan."
Wen Yanya blushed at Qin Shu's words.
Since she had received repeated assurances from Qin Shu, she could no longer resist the sleepiness in her heart, and followed the maid to the guest room to sleep.
After Wen Yanya left, Qin Shu's face darkened again.
Xiao Si and Xiao Wu looked at their mother's face and couldn't help but feel a little scared.
Xiao Si even whispered to Xiao Wu secretly.
"Didn't mother promise Sister Wen to give her a lively big brother? Is it enough for the big brother to be lively, and we can be half dead?"
Even the third child twitched his mouth speechlessly after hearing what he said, and Qin Shu looked at Xiao Wu with a "swish". With that look, Xiao Wu was about to be chopped into pieces.
"I said I wouldn't punish you, but I didn't say I wouldn't scold you!"
Qin Shu's anger, which had subsided in her heart, rose again.
She looked at the guilty faces and sneered.
"You are so powerful now. If I hadn't gone to Xixi's room in the middle of the night, I wouldn't have discovered the big thing you did!"
Everyone looked at Xiao Xixi, and Xiao Xixi felt a little flustered.
[Oh, why are you looking at Xiao Xixi? It was obviously my mother who suddenly attacked. Don't blame Xixi.]
Xiao Xixi looked aggrieved, and Qin Shu was even more angry.
"The whole family is involved, even a child as old as Xixi is involved, but you didn't tell me. I didn't even hear about such a big thing, could it be that you really want to conjure Xiaoya out of thin air the next day?"
"Jinnan Palace, that's Jinnan Palace! Even with the power of the Qin family, it may not be able to fight against Zhao Zemo, and you kids are so bold to go to the palace to die!"
Qin Shu was very angry at the sight. Qin Qixuan
could understand. When he saw Qin Qiting and the others showing up with Xixi, although he was moved, he was more depressed, with that feeling of powerlessness that made him unable to breathe.
So Qin Qixuan immediately took the initiative to admit his mistake, looked at Qin Shu, apologized very sincerely, and promised that he would never do the same thing again.
Qin Shu couldn't do anything to him, he had admitted his mistake obediently, and he had no choice but to save his fiancée. Qin Shu taught them a lesson and reminded them of everything they should have. Qin Qixuan was not a child who knew nothing, he would definitely understand these.
